Houthi shelling threatens thousands of African refugees in western Lahj

Western Lahj, Yemen ·

Services at the Kharaz camp in Lahj have been suspended and movement restricted amid the escalation, which threatens thousands of refugees there. More than 134,000 migrants and refugees have reached Yemen over the past nine months.

Since 2014 Yemen has been divided between the Houthi movement (Ansar Allah), which controls Sanaa and most of the north, and the south, largely held by forces backing the internationally recognised government, including Lahj.
